• Satellite L350-170 - sounds of clanking from the HARD drive

  My laptop Satellite L350-170 performs a kind of rattling noise when the hard drive light flashes.
  Is this normal because this is a replacement one but that I had did not all sounds.

  Hello

  It is very difficult to say why this noise appears.
  I have two laptops. On a laptop, the HARD drive clicks and creates its strange but 4 years it worked correctly.
  The other HDD doesn t create sounds

  So, as you can see not really easy to tell what could cause this noise of rattle, but I recommend creating a file backup.
  In the worst cases could die your HARD drive and as a result, a backup is always recommended.

  You said that the HARD drive has been changed so maybe you should ask ASP for more details and maybe this HARD drive will be replaced again.

• How to start the installation of recovery on Satellite L350-170?

  Hello

  I'm new to this so please be gentle with me! -J' have a Toshiba Satellite L350-170 (Windows Vista SP2). I burned the recovery DVD 2 right after that I got back. I decided to get it back to factory settings, so I put the first recovery disc in the drive and... nothing. It will not automatically play/start to start the recovery process. I can access the files on the drive through "MY COMPUTER" but you can see a 'set-up '. I had already used the discs to recover and it worked then no problem.

  There is nothing wrong with the computer or the error messages

  Apologies if its been said before, but can someone help or I would like to know what is happening please?

  with deep gratitude

  Hello Mike

  If it worked in the past that I n t see the reason why it shouldn't still works one time, except the discs are damaged.

  Anyway, try this:
  Start your laptop and press F12 repeatedly to enter the boot menu
  Insert disk 1 into the optical disc drive
  In the list, choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER

  ODD must start to read the disc and you should see something on the screen.

  It works for you?

  Hello!

  Downgrade from Vista to XP isn't very difficult and it should be possible that you can do yourself.

  You need at least one drive in Microsoft Windows XP with SP2. Boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen. But you need the SATA drivers, the computer can recognize the HARD drive. For drivers, you need Intel Storage Manager, which can be downloaded on the site of Toshiba and this is workaround step by step how to do this:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9401AN0000R01.htm

  If you have installed XP, you must install all the drivers and tools for this. All what you need you can find on the Toshiba site:

• Question - loop on Satellite L350-170 Windows error recovery

  Toshiba Satellite L350-170 - Intel Pentium Dual Core T3200 2.00 GHz, 2 GB, 250 GB, 17 "TFT, DVDSM, VHP

  My wife bought three weeks ago. Use of the lamp. Everything works fine, until a dialogue of "Startup Repair" appeared. Since then, the machine starts.

  Machine goes into "Windows Error Recovery" immediately after the Toshiba start screen and has the following options;
  (1) run the Startup Repair tool
  (2) start Windows normally

  Option 2 results in a blank screen and finally goes back to the screen "Windows Error Recovery".

  Option 1 has the reboot dialog box;

  "Your computer was unable to start.
  Startup Repair is checking your system for problems... »

  At this point, the Toshiba laptop enters an endless loop.

  So what I do now? There is no disc came with the laptop, so I can't reinstall the operating system. The dealer (Comet) is less useful and don't know no refund or Exchange for a defective product.

  Can someone please!

  Try this:

  Press F8 immediately after that the laptop has been turned on.
  Then choose the first option called fix my computer.
  Then a new window should open and there you can choose the option called Toshiba recovery.

  Please note then this procedure would start the Toshiba HDD recovery and the BONE to relocate again. This would be to format the whole HARD drive and set the OS to the factory settings.

  In my eyes, you can use this procedure for recovery of HARD drive, or you can try to reinstall the OS using the Toshiba recovery disc.
  Both lead to the same results

  Good bye

• New recovery for Satellite L350-170 discs save updates?

  I just restored my Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit OS on my Toshiba Satellite L350-170, using the recovery disks that I created 4 years when I bought my laptop.

  After you restore the operating system, it took the better part of a day to install all the Microsoft updates, including Service Pack 2 Vista and other programs that I use (e.g. MS Office, Real player, AVG etc.).

  Now everything is up to date, I have created a new hard disk system restore point and run the Toshiba Recovery Media Creator. Just out of curiosity, will be created until the last restore point recovery disks or it again just the discs that I have, that restore it to factory settings?

  If this only restores to factory settings, is there a way to create a system disk to get back to the point that it is now?

  Creation of recovery disks has nothing to do with the points and restore your settings.
  Recovery recorded on the HARD disk image is created long ago and contains all the necessary parameters created at this time.

  Creator of recovery disc just copy this recovery image on empty media.

  Whenever you use recovery discs, you will own BONES without updates and you must repeat this installation of additional updates.

  Hello

  I ve been looking at this laptop for a few days now and I m thinking go for it when I get my pay.
  I just want to know if someone there what they think of him. What's the life of the battery as etc.

  Congratulations in advance :)

  Hello

  I use Toshiba laptops for long time now and to be honest I don't like the L series laptops. The notebooks are OK, but I don't like the design. This negative one s for me

  I must also say that quality-price ratio for this laptop is great, but I prefer to improve the design and because of this, I have my second Satellite phone.
  Back to Satellite L350-170. I don't know how much it costs, but for that money, you will get excellent laptop with great 17 inch screen and it is perfect for every working day.
  There is also a webcam with built-in microphone allowing you a perfect by Skype and other messengers communication.
  For the life of the battery is not possible to provide the exact duration, but it is similar to my Satellite and I can work on 1.5 hours of battery power. But to be honest, this laptop is for me although permanent replacement and Office to work on the desktop with AC power supply.
  OK all of us have different opinions on this subject.

  So the question is who would you need the laptop. You want to upgrade the RAM and so on (you can improve it up to 4 GB)?
  Talk about this with your local dealer.

• Satellite L350-170 runs 2 hours on battery

  Hello

  I just bought a Toshiba Satellite L350-170 and it the battery life is terrible. I saw here that Toshiba is a battery 9 cells for it.

  Does anyone know what would be the life of the battery with it? At the moment IVIM lucky to get 2 hours with a wi - fi connection.

  Matt

  Hello

  AFAIK L350 PSLD8E-170 shipped with 6cells 4000mAh battery,
  It comes with a standard battery and if you want to run this laptop a bit more on the battery then I recommend buying a stronger compatible battery.

  My U400 also circulates approximately 2.5hours with the standard battery and the gray screen.
  But I must mention that the U400 supports and screen 13 and the L350 was equipped with screen 17 "who needs more power and so you battery lasts about 2 hours.

  On the page in the page Options & accessories Toshiba Europe, you should find some batteries compatible and stronger!

• Satellite L350-170 - number of the motherboard?

  Hi guys,.

  I need the motherboard reference number a Toshiba Satellite L350-170. I should be grateful if you would help. Thank you.

  Hi varioxx,

  The problem is that here you can talk with normal like you and me only, and we don t have access to Toshiba databases to verify the part number.

  So I think you need to contact a service provider allowed in your country and ask the guys for part number. You can give them a call, for example, I think he should take a few minutes to get the part number of technicians.
  And by the way: guys can order the motherboard too!

  You can find a list of aspic here:

  Hello

  You didn t receive a disk that this laptop because this phone has been equipped with a recovery procedure internal.
  This allows you to reinstall the operating system using the disk HARD recovery option.

  In addition, you can find a preinstalled tool called Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator on this laptop. There should be a shortcut on the desktop.

  This tool lets you create a clean recovery disc! And this is highly recommended!
  You need this disc if something goes wrong with the HARD drive!

  Thus, create the recovery disk before you change anything on the HARD drive.

  PS: The drivers are located on the European driver Toshiba page:

• On Satellite L350-170 drive failure

  I have a Satellite L350-170 who suffered a failure of the drive. I did not the recovery disks. The only part of the hard drive that I can access is the recovery partition.

  Anyone know of a way I can copy it to another disk and use it to rebuild me laptop?

  It will not work on this path. You can use this recovery image with F8 (computer repair) only.
  You cannot move to for example external HARD disk and start the process of recovery from there.

  Until you have the factory settings, you can install OS using F8. You can do this so often desired.

• Re: Satellite L350-170 - WiFi stops and starts

  Hello

  I have the Toshiba Satellite L350-170 and it's great. I am running Vista 32 bit and I got it for Christmas ' 08.

  For a while now, just WiFi stop (if I use the webcam on msn or something) as if it is just overloaded, then I had to wait a few minutes before it turns back again!

  Is there a driver to stay connected to the internet? In my taskbar, it is said that I am always connected, and when I check on ConfigFree (when I can't use the internet, but it says I * am * logged.)

  This can be solved?
  I hope you can help!

  Kind regards
  James K

  Hi James,

  Maybe this problem is caused by the router. You should check the log of it. The router is always connected interruptions?
  In this case an update would be desirable and let the ISP, check your Internet connection.

  In addition, you can try updating the driver WLAN. The latest version is available for download on the Toshiba site.

• Display Satellite L350-170 went funny pictures

  Hello

  I have a Satellite L350-170, but display went funny photos began to look like negatives and colors are not the same as and there are like ghost screens under my current screen.
  I tried unistalling drivers and reinstall but it's just the same

  Any help with this would be appreciated thanks

  Hello

  Test the laptop as part of the external monitor.
  Check if the same funny images would be visible on the external monitor.
  I think that if the same will appear on the second monitor, the problem might be related to the graphics card.

  In this case, replace the motherboard with the GPU chip.

• Should what cable I connect Satellite L350-170 on my TV?

  I have a simple question... What cable should I connect and view my Satellite L350-170 on my TV?

  Hello

  How to check the manual?

  As much as I know L350-170 does not support the TV out port.
  It does not support HDMI as well.

  So that it supports only a VGA port.
  If your TV supports a VGA port (some LCD this) then you can use and VGA cable
